Overview

With its mix of wetlands, grasslands, and dramatic badlands, South Dakota has an impressive diversity of birds. During migration, thousands of ducks, geese, and cranes pass through the many lakes, ponds, and marshes, often congregations in groups numbering too many to count. Iconic species like Western Meadowlark, Sharp-tailed Grouse, and state bird Ring-necked Pheasant are stand-outs in tallgrass prairies; the scenic Black Hills are home to American Dippers, Red-naped Sapsuckers, and Mountain Bluebirds. Over 440 bird species have been observed in the Mount Rushmore State, the majority of which are either permanent residents, regular breeders, or annual migrants. Sifting through so many species is a challenge, so it helps to start by getting acquainted with a smaller number of representative species to establish a solid foundation of knowledge on which to build.
